No minimum orderDescription
Metamaterials-by-Design: Theory, Technologies, and Vision is devoted to a comprehensive review of the latest advancements and current trends in the field of system-level-oriented metamaterial design methods, technologies, and future perspectives. Starting from the theoretical and methodological motivations of this research to macro-scale performance-driven design of volumetric and planar metamaterials, the book introduces advanced task-oriented modeling approaches, including specific reference to their multi-scale/ multi-physics customization in recent metamaterial science and engineering. In the introduction of these concepts, particular attention is paid to the illustration of the physical mechanisms and phenomena at the basis of the field manipulation capabilities enabled by metamaterials. Contributions from industry and academic perspectives on active and passive metamaterial-enhanced devices for communications and sensing are included. The final part of the volume is aimed at providing a perspective regarding the current trends, future research and application tracks in system-performance-driven metamaterial design methodologies and technologies, included potential applications in future reconfigurable and cognitive materials.

About the Series Editor
Lorenzo Pavesi
Lorenzo Pavesi is Professor of Experimental Physics at the Department of Physics of the University of Trento (Italy). He received his PhD in Physics in 1990 at the Ecole Polytechnique Federale of Lausanne (Switzerland). He founded the research activity in semiconductor optoelectronics at the University of Trento and started several laboratories of photonics, growth and advanced treatment of materials. He has directed 37 PhD students and more than 30 Master thesis students. Initially, he was interested in the optical properties of semiconductors then he moved to Silicon photonics where he looks for active photonics devices which can be integrated in silicon by using nanotechnology or light matter interactions. His interests encompass also optical sensors or biosensors and solar cells. Recent development is toward integrated quantum photonics and hybrid neuromorphic photonics. He is an ERC grantee. He is an author or co-author of more than 500 papers, editor of more than 15 books, author of 2 books and holds 9 patents. In 2001 he was awarded the title of Cavaliere by the Italian President for scientific merit. He is fellow of the IEEE, of SPIE and of the SIF.
